Greece’s Civil Protection Deputy Minister for Crisis Management, Nikos Hardalias in his televised briefing on Thursday announced the gradual lifting of restrictions from May.
Hardalias clarified that although the restriction measures to contain the Covid-19 pandemic are extended from April 27 to May 4, “the next phase will be the gradual return to normalcy,” adding that relaxing the measures would then proceed in two phases in May and June, in two-week increments.
The pandemic has been subsiding in Greece, he said, according to Greek media, “but the war is not yet won.”
